Area F

Trench 1

This day was only a half day at the site, as I felt pretty ill and went home at breakfast. We basically were able to do only a couple of things.

We worked at removing the higher part which we had left in the NW corner of the trench, part of L1078. We had left it there the day before basically because we didn’t have time to get to it, so it was just a case of taking it down to the level of the dirt around it.

We also spent a large part of the morning troweling down the entire S half of L1078, the place where we had discovered some bricky material and also the new wall L1080. We troweled down just enough in the area to the east of the line to see if the wall continues or if it ends.   We think that the wall does appear to continue farther down towards the E baulk, almost meeting up with L1069, another wall or pavement locus. Only difference is that we don’t see bricks in this locus 1080, just lines.

That ended the day as I was feeling ill.
